The Trial

Josef K. is a 30-year-old man who's suddenly arrested by two unknown agents from an unknown government agency, set to prosecute him for an unknown crime. He's also the protagonist of Franz Kafka's epic novel The Trial, which has been adapted by THEATREdART (128 N. Nevada Ave., theatredart.org) artistic director Brian Mann into the company's latest production, opening Jan. 11 and playing tonight at 8, and running through Jan. 27. "What we do or say has impact, even more so than in Kafka's day," writes Mann on the group's website. "Now you can get fired for writing the wrong thing on Facebook." Tickets are $5 to $10, or "free if you are currently under arrest." — Bryce Crawford
